[ale] bonehead ipset additions

[DJPfulio at jdpfu.com]

If comments can be on the same line in the ipset file, the script is dumb enough to allow them.
If comments have to be placed onto a different line, I'd use getopts ... to accept 2 arguments and put the --comment input where it needs to go. The comment would be optional.

Or create another script based on the CIDR used and pulls the org+location from whois records.
